Assassin’s Creed Odyssey - A Trip in the Egyptian Civilization

almost 4 years ago

Assassin's Creed is one of the games that laid the foundation for a whole family of games, but with the passage of time and the large number of versions of the game, the game lost its identity completely and lost a large part of its fun, and during the past years we have seen many parts that offer small moves and small developments that are not mentioned in the quality of the series and the joy of its titles .

Odyssey will not offer a complete and qualitative new move in the game, despite the fact that it has turned into a full RPG game. Rather, it will re-submit everything that came in the previous games, and one big question remains. Was this re-submission enough to bring the game back to the straight path? Or is it a failed attempt like the previous one.

The story

As we saw from all the offers that were released for the game that talked about the story, then this time you will choose your hero and choose to follow one of the two descendants of one of the king's Ionides and the great Spartan king who saved Greece from the Persian occupation and the owner of the famous sentence It is a powerful and lethal weapon that gives its holder supernatural ability.

The story begins on Kefalonia island when one of your friends is exposed to danger and of course you will end up saving him, perhaps Kefalonia island and the characters in it are the great weakness in the story, the first area aims to introduce you to the world and give you a reason to sympathize with the trip and of course there is a secret sect trying to conduct the war and control its outcome using pieces Whoever cuts Aden and of course you will try to stop them.

Although the story does not provide us with Assassin's literal sense of the word, it also gives us the real beginning for them and the most important story focuses on the first civilization this time the plot is the strongest point in the story and it will make you condone all other defects in it, whether it is weak dialogues or weakness of the characters presented Which made the choices in the game and convert it to RPG not noticeable and does not really affect the desired form in the story that will form the entire moratorium of your choices, which is what he went through on two side missions at least.

Gameplay

As for the gameplay, as I said, the game reused many of the ideas that were presented earlier, starting from the style of naval battles and ships, for example, you have to go south of such a lake or near a cave or statue, and so you will have to open the map and search for the places that you described to you to find your mission,
The usual mode of Ubisoft games is more geared for those who want to have an experience and a bit quick result.

Unfortunately, the fun and excitement in the story did not move to designing missions, especially designing basic missions, and there are some light-blooded missions that may end in romantic relationships as we saw in the game's propaganda, but it must be noted that the Middle East version has removed romantic relations from it and even if the choice appears to you A download screen will appear for you and you will not be able to have relationships with the same gender as your character. It is an effort that we should thank the Middle East team for.

The thing that I would like to talk about on missions is the marine missions and the fighting and development of ships, which is one of the best and most fun points in the game, as you will be able to allocate the crew of the ship and appoint and ask for help from different personalities that you will meet in your journey in the game world, all of this is logical and appropriate to the fact that the game Switched to a full RPG.

The game has turned into an RPG, but with a greater set of different abilities that can be called and used in battle, the fighting style is very similar to Origins in its dependence on dodging, blocking, and fast or slow attacks, but it has become smoother and has made the differences between the characters or the level gap possible to deal with and overcome, which eliminates The need for grinding is too much and boring.

The game re-uses the engine and graphic resources from Assassin's Creed Origins, but this time with the replacement of deserts and dry areas in Egypt with the seas until we saw them previously, and even this clear beauty in the environment surrounding you will motivate you to explore them on foot without the need to use a ship or other rapid means of transportation within the game .

And this beauty also moves to the soundtrack in the game, as the game offers a group of sound music fun and dazzling without feeling any boredom.

In the end, I can say that Assasin's Creed Odyssey game is the first experience that comes out from the period of the series and brings an enjoyable experience and you can listen to it and feel with it a continuous pleasure, and although the game did not provide a new qualitative shift in the series and reintroduced the previous things, it gives you a feeling and the impression that all This appears for the first time and with quality we see for the first time.
